Hi PACS students! If you don't know me already, I'm Hannah. I'm a 4th year Peace and Conflict Studies & English student, minoring in Women's Studies. I'm also currently working as the PACS Communications Assistant for the 2018-2019 school year. Â
Here’s my entry for Humans of PACS. Message us on social media or email pacsasst@uwaterloo.ca if you’re interested in sharing!
In celebration of the 40th anniversary of Peace and Conflict Studies at the University of À¶Ý®ÊÓÆµ, on April 20 Conrad Grebel University College hosted a sold-out gala dinner featuring the Honourable Bob Rae as keynote speaker.
Last week, the University of À¶Ý®ÊÓÆµ hosted its 10th annual Teaching and Learning Conference. Each year, the conference brings together instructors from a variety of faculties and departments to share research and teaching strategies through interactive workshops and panel discussions.
When Nina Bailey-Dick began at the University of À¶Ý®ÊÓÆµ (1992-1999) she knew that it was community development that interested her, and since the university did not offer this as a program, she chose to purse a General Arts degree with a PACS option; taking courses that would prepare her for working in community development.
Stephen Kotev has dedicated his professional career to the practice and study of conflict resolution. His first exposure to conflict resolution began as a high school peer mediator over twenty years ago. From high school, Stephen attended Conrad Grebel, graduating with a History degree, with a PACS option and an International Studies option.
